wealthy lord

Chapter 887: Liucheng falls, Una goes berserk

Now he was wearing a luxurious black gold-plated robe, had a goatee, and was sitting upright on the armchair, talking with Xiang Chong.

On the shelf on one side, there are more than a dozen AK47 assault rifles.

He deliberately placed it like this with the purpose of letting everyone know that his Qi family is now the favorite of the Regent in the court and has the most advanced weapons and equipment.

At this time, Xiang Chong clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the scouts of the Green Camp just reported that Guan Haiyue has secretly dispatched 30,000 elite troops to capture Liucheng in Fufeng County!"

Qi Rui frowned, stood up and walked to the sand table, took a closer look, and said unhappily: "Liucheng is less than 50 miles away from our defense line. Do they want to start a war in advance?"

Xiang Chong nodded solemnly: "This possibility is very high! Therefore, I think since this is the first battle, we must win! This will greatly help boost morale!"

Last time, Lin Yun issued a transfer order and let Ye Wanqing replace Xiang Chong.

As a top strategist, Xiang Chong naturally understood what it meant. While secretly sighing at his own breach of trust, he had no choice but to come and seek refuge with Qi Rui.

Fortunately, he was capable enough and had made friends with Qi Rui in Tongshan Pass in advance. As soon as he arrived, he was highly valued by the Qi family and became the personal aide of Qi Rui, the King of Jiangxia.

Qi Rui slapped the handrail at the edge of the sand table and sighed, "Mr. Xiang, haven't you figured it out yet? This Liucheng is the gateway city between Fufeng County and Jiangxia County. It's like a nail stuck straight into our hinterland! This is the most important supply line. Let alone going to war, even if they send troops to harass us every now and then, we can't bear it!"

Xiang Chong nodded and said, "Of course I saw it! If Zhao Yanliang could make a decision quickly, our troops could have pressed on to Hanzhong County ahead of time. But without Zhao Yanliang's nod, everything would be in vain!"

Qi Rui said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xiang, do you think it is possible that Zhao Yanliang has already sat on Guan Haiyue's side?"

Xiang Chong smiled bitterly and said, "Even if he really sits over there, we can only pretend that we know nothing!"

"Oh? Why?"

Qi Rui asked curiously.

"Hey, why is the prince so confused? This is easy to understand! Assuming Zhao Yanliang really sat on the wrong side of the butt, if we expose it, it is very likely that Zhao Yanliang will be forced to completely surrender to Guan Haiyue! But as long as we pretend that we know nothing, he will definitely continue to waver like this! In the future, Zhao Yanliang will be the biggest variable and will become Guan Haiyue's biggest worry!"

Qi Rui's eyes lit up and he praised: "Mr. Xiang, what you said makes sense! Then let's pretend we know nothing and directly attack Liucheng?"

Xiang Chong stroked his goatee lightly and said playfully, "That's right! However, I have a plan. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"Haha, Mr. Xiang, there's no need to keep us in suspense! The plan you proposed must be correct!"

Xiang Chong's eyes flashed, and he said sternly, "Your Majesty, have you ever heard that 'the quality of an army is more important than its quantity'?"

"Of course! Throughout history, those battles where a smaller force can defeat a larger one are all classic battles! If you can win, there will naturally be nothing but benefits!"

"I have heard that the third wife of the Regent, Una, is born with supernatural powers. She is a heroine and has the courage of ten thousand men. If the prince can arrange for her to lead an elite force to attack Liucheng at night, it will surely be a surprise victory!"

Qi Rui sighed, "I thought Mr. Xiang had come up with some brilliant plan! So this is it! Mr. Xiang had better not think about it. Although Una is brave, she is the third wife favored by the Regent. If she gets hurt on the battlefield, the Regent will hold her accountable. I can't afford it!"

Even though he has become the King of Jiangxia and has become quite inflated, he still doesn't dare to act rashly towards Lin Yun.

Lin Yun's various powers had long been engraved in his mind. Even in his dreams, he dared not show any disrespect to Lin Yun. Xiang Chong said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, as the saying goes, every man is responsible for the fate of his country! Since the Regent asked the Third Madam to come to the front line, it must be a sign of his trust in her ability! Moreover, what if the Regent intends to gild the Third Madam?"

Qi Rui waved his hand and said, "That won't work! Unless the Regent King personally orders the Third Madam to carry out military missions, otherwise, no matter what Mr. Xiang says, I will not agree!"

But at this moment, Una suddenly rushed in dragging her machete that was as tall as a person, scaring Qi Rui and Xiang Chong, who thought she was going on a killing spree.

Una gathered all her strength and chopped down with her knife, splitting the sand table in half.

Even the bluestone bricks on the ground were broken, leaving a shallow pit as big as a pot.

This frightened Qi Rui and Xiang Chong so much that they turned pale and felt that the blood flowing in their bodies had turned half cold.

"King Jiangxia, do you look down on me because I'm a woman? Mr. Xiang has proposed a strategy, why don't you agree? I came to the front line to make achievements and conquer the world for my husband! Not to be left in your house to embroider with those women all day long! If you don't assign me a task, I will kill you with a knife! "

Xiang Chong had a wicked smile on his face. He had put a lot of effort into this operation.

However, he did not have any bad intentions, but hoped to speak well of himself to Lin Yun through Una. After all, his ability was truly strong and was not inferior to Du Sheng's in any way.

Qi Rui smiled bitterly and was about to speak when the official hat on his head suddenly cracked in the middle and fell to the ground.

This surprised him greatly, and he secretly sighed that the third wife of the Regent was indeed extraordinary.

The first time they met was in Yucheng, Fengyang County.

At that time, Qi Rui was dissatisfied with Una and indeed looked down on her as a woman.

In his opinion, women should stay at home to give birth to and raise children, while fighting in battle is a man's job.

"Madam Third, calm down. Can we talk it out? I am now the King of Jiangxia, commanding an army of hundreds of thousands. Madam Third, can you please give me some face?"

Una carried the sword on her shoulder and pouted, "You want to save face, okay? But don't hold me back, okay? I'm giving you a chance now. Immediately follow what Mr. Xiang said and issue a military order. Just equip me with an elite force and we can capture Liucheng tomorrow!"

Qi Rui was choked by her and was filled with anger, but he could not vent it on the Regent's third wife.

In fact, he understood that Una's sudden appearance must be Qi Rui's doing.

"Oh, Madam, please forgive me! You are worth a fortune. If something happens to you on the battlefield, how can I explain to the Regent?"

"Do you need to explain? Don't be a woman. Do you want to give the military order? If not, you will be stabbed by me!"

As she spoke, she raised the machete as tall as a person again.

Most middle-aged men cannot lift this machete. Even if they can lift it with difficulty, they cannot do it as easily as she does.

This shows how strong Una is.
